Contrivances  for  hanging  sliding  doors  from  above,  instead  of  placing  the  rail  on  the  floor  and  having 
sheaves  and  rollers  mortised  into  the  lower  rail,  are  distinctly  American,  and  if  we  mistake  not,  had  their 
origin  in  the  city  of  Philadelphia.  The  advantages  of  hanging  a door  from  above  are  several.  There  is  required 
less  guiding  fixtures,  and,  accordingly,  less  friction  is  encountered  and  less  force  is  required  to  operate  the  door. 
Hanging  a door  from  the  top  saves  any  obstruction  in  the  shape  of  rail  or  guide  on  the  floor,  and  therefore  per- 
mits the  carpet  to  extend  through  from  one  room  to  the  other  without  break.  The  Sheaves  illustrated  show  one 
style  of  an  improvement  in  articles  of  this  kind  introduced. 

No.  1 shows  a 6-inch  with  Hand  Rail  Nut,  suitable  for  a door  three  feet  or  more  in  width  and  one  and 
three-quarters  inches  or  more  in  thickness. 

No.  2 gives  a 4-inch,  same  style  of  Nut,  and  intended  for  lighter  doors  than  just  mentioned,  in  which  a 
lighter  Sheave  than  the  6-inch  may  be  used. 

No.  3 displays  a 6-inch  with  flat  frame,  to  be  used  where  individuals  object  to  boring  the  doors  for  the  Hand 
Rail  Pattern,  and,  also,  where  appearance  is  not  a matter  of  importance.  Where  this  form  is  used,  the  bar  is 
let  in  flush  or  level  with  the  surface  and  painted  over. 

No.  4 exhibits  a 4-inch  Sheave  of  the  same  fashion  as  No.  3. 

The  Frames  are  all  made  entirely  of  Wrought  Iron.  The  Wheels  of  Iron,  with  a Composition  Pin. 

The  Rail  is  Wrought  Steel  Bar,  two  inches  wide  and  one  quarter  of  an  inch  thick,  dressed  semi-cylindrically 
or  round  on  the  upper  edge  to  fit  the  Sheave,  and  drilled  for  screws  to  fasten  it  on  a horizontal  piece  of  timber 
which  is  attached  to  the  studding.  The  Rail  may  be  made  heavier  if  desired.

American  Adjustable 


Anti-Friction 


Sliding  Door 


Hangers. 


Cut  shows  half  a set. 


The  above  cut  illustrates  the  AMERICAN  HANGER  in  position.  These 
Hangers  have  advantages  over  all  others,  being  more  simple  in  construction,  strong 
rand  easily  adjusted.  They  require  no  deep  mortising  in  top  or  side  of  door  as  is  the 
case  with  other  Hangers,  making  them  less  difficult  to  hang  and  giving  the  screws 
a perfect  hold. 

In  construction  all  wearing  surfaces  are  carefully  milled  to  insure  smoothness  in 
running.  A Malleable  Iron  Wedge,  having  a rise  and  fall  of  over  an  inch,  is  ad- 
justed by  a set  screw,  and  carries  the  jdiole  weight  of  the  door.  All  strain  comes 
between  the  stirrups  directly  on  the  wedge  and  never  on  the  adjusting  screw. 

Hangei's  work  equally  well  on  single  or  double,  either  light  or  heavy  doors — 
requiring  the  slightest  touch  to  move  them. 

Price  includes  Hangers  for  double  doors  (single  doors  half  price),  and  includes 
Iiard  wood  track  for  the  Hangers  to  run  upon.

France’s  Shutter  Holder. 


Shutter  Locked.  Shutter  Bowed.  Open  or  Stayed  Back. 


France’s  Shutter  Holder  does  away  with  Bolts  and  Turnbuckles,  and  bows  either  Shutter 
independent  of  the  other,  at  any  desired  angle. 

It  is  much  more  secure  than  a bolt,  and  cannot  rust  and  strain  the  shutters,  or  in  any  way 
get  out  of  order.  It  is  simple  in  construction,  and  sells  for  less  money  than  the  old  fasteners 
now  in  use. 


It  avoids  the  danger  of  reaching  out  of  the  window  to  fasten  the  shutters  back,  and  the 
very  great  inconvenience  of  rusty- and  frozen  bolts.  The  Hooks  are  7,  8 and  10  inches  long.

Patent  Diamond  Point  Steel  Screw-Nails. 


Size Measurement  from  under  head  to  point. 

These  Screws  can  be  readily  driven  with  a hammer  their  entire  length  into  the  most 
thoroughly  seasoned  oak,  maple,  hickory,  or  other  hard  wood  ; or,  if  greater  holding  strength 
be  required,  they  may  be  partially  driven  by  hammering,  and  then  turned  to  place  with  a 
screw-driver. 

In  all  cases  they  can  be  easily  removed  with  a screw-driver,  regardless  of  the  manner  in 
which  they  may  have  been  driven. 

The  head  is  made  convex  to  strengthen  it  and  prevent  its  splitting  when  struck  with  a 
hammer. 

The  thread  is  of  the  ratchet  form,  which  permits  its  penetration  without  tearing  the 
wood  fibres,  and  consequently  its  holding  capacity  is  increased  by  a large  percentage  over  the 
ordinary  wood  screw,  driven  in  the  usual  manner.

We  take  great  pleasure  in  placing  before  our  Customers  The  Chicago  Spring  Hinge,  which  we  consider  one 
of  the  best  in  the  market,  both  in  appearance  and  durability,  and  at  a less  price  than  any  other  first-class  Double 
Action  Spring  Hinge.  The  spring  is  not  contained  in  the  butt,  but  placed  in  a connecting  case  between  two 
three  leaved  butts,  which  allows  the  use  of  a long  spring,  and  when  applied  to  the  door  and  closed  nothing  is 
seen  more  than  an  ordinary  butt  for  corresponding  size  of  door,  avoiding  the  clumsy  appearance  usual  to  spring 
butts,  with  the  spring  contained  in  them.  But  one  spring  is  used  for  each  butt,  which  is  attached  to  the  centre 
of  bottom  and  top  centre  leaf,  giving  the  spring  a purchase  power  in  closing  equal  to  the  distance  from  axis  to 
centre  of  leaf  as  it  uncoils  itself,  in  addition  to  contraction  in  length  of  spring  sustained  in  opening  the  door. 
But  little  labor  or  mechanical  skill  is  required  in  applying  them.  By  drawing  a top  and  bottom  pin  on  opposite 
sides,  one  outside  leaf  is  released  to  apply  to  door,  and  when  replaced  will  allow  the  other  outside  leaf  to  be 
taken  off  in  the  same  way  to  be  applied  to  jam,  and  when  hung  the  door  can  be  removed  same  as  any  ordinary 
Loose  Pin  Butt.  The  Double  Acting  Blank  Butt  is  intended  to  be  used  with  Spring  Butt  to  reduce  the  cost  on 
doors,  light  enough  for  one  spring  to  operate  them.  The  same  general  description  applies  to  the  Single  Action 
Spring  Butt,  except  having  but  two  leaves.  It  is  applied  to  the  door  like  a Fast  Joint  Butt.

ENGINE  HOUSE  TRIPS. 


The  Engine  House  Trip  is  used  with  the  Electric  Fire  Alarm  System,  for  the  purpose  of 
shortening  the  time  required  to  make  ready  to  leave  the  house  after  an  alarm  comes  in. 
The  trip  is  placed  alongside  the  alarm  bell  and  by  the  first  backward  motion  of  the  hammer 
of  the  gong  preparatory  to  striking,  the  automatic  trip  lever  is  freed,  which  throws  the  stall 
doors  open,  also  stopping  the  clock  at  the  same  instant,  showing  the  exact  time  the  alarm 
comes  in.  The  whole  connection  is  made  by  simply  pulling  down  the  lever  at  the  lower  end 
of  the  case.  It  can  be  arranged  to  light  the  gas  if  desired.  It  is  simple  in  construction  and 
not  likely  to  get  out  of  order.  We  take  pleasure  in  refering  to  Chief  Engineer  Cantlin,  of  the 
Philadelphia  Fire  Department ; Captain  Stillman,  of  the  Fire  Insurance  Patrol,  Philadelphia ; 
Keystone  Hook  & Ladder  Co.,  Reading,  Pa.;  Vigilant  Fire  Co.,  York,  Pa.;  Chief  Engineer,

ENGINE  HOUSE  DOOR  SPRINGS. 


To  any  one  who  has 
seen  the  rapid  prepara- 
tion made  for  getting  an 
engine  to  the  scene  of  a 
fire  after  an  alarm  has 
been  sounded,  it  will  be 
plain  that  the  efficiency 
of  the  department  in 
some  measure  depends 
upon  how  suddenly  the 
door  can  be  opened  au- 
tomatically. Systems 
vary  somewhat  as  be- 
tween different  cities, 
although  in  the  main 
they  agree.  The  origi- 
nal alarm  moves  the  lever,  which  releases  the  horses,  and  opens  the 
stable  doors.  The  horses  rush  out,  and  place  themselves  alongside  the 
pole  of  the  engine.  At  the  same  instant,  men  are  ready  to  hook  the 
traces  and  attach  the  breast  chains.  By  this  time  the  driver  is  on  his 
seat  and  the  engine  men  in  their  places.  All  is  ready  for  the  door  to 
open.  The  driver  reaches  above  his  head,  pulls  a ring  attached  to  a 
rope  that  releases  the  front  doors,  which  in  turn  swing  open  by  the 
force  of  some  such  spring  as  we  show.  It  is  evident  that  considerable 
power  is  required  in  a spring  for  this  purpose,  for  as  the  doors  start  to 
open,  the  horses  rush  forward  as  though  it  were  not  possible  for  any- 
thing to  be  between  them  and  the  street.  If  the  doors  should  fail  to 
swing  clear  back,  there  would  at  once  be  either  an  engine  or  a door 
requiring  considerable  repairs.  When  it  is  considered  that  from  the 
time  the  alarm  is  sounded  until  the  engine  is  out  of  the  house  only  8, 
or,  at  the  most,  io  seconds  have  elapsed,  it  will  be  seen  how  necessary 
great  strength  and  efficiency  of  parts  become. 

Suitable  for  any  Door  where  a strong,  durable  Spring  is  required, 
made  of  the  best  quality  of  Steel,  in  three  sizes. 

By  their  construction  these  Springs  are  adapted  to  swing  open  or 
to  close  a door. 

As  the  Arm  is  now  arranged  it  is  intended  to  close  a Door,  and  if 
the  spring  is  wanted  to  open  a door,  place  the  Arm  on  the  other  side 
of  the  pulley.  each.
